ART OF HARNESSING ENERGY FOR GREAT SOUND

60mm large dynamic driver

The FT3’s large dynamic driver also has other benefits. For example, due to its large size, the diaphragm is capable of bearing higher output power, leading to less distortion under large dynamic signals. Also, the larger driver is more easily able to produce lower frequencies for deeper reaching bass.

THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED

Beryllium-plated gasket + DLC diaphragm

The diaphragm is one of the most important parts of a dynamic driver. And not just any diaphragm material can meet the demands of the FT3 due to the large driver size. After countless testing at FiiO, a beryllium-plated gasket + DLC diaphragm was chosen.

The FT3 driver gasket is plated with beryllium. This not only results in a lighter gasket (and thus a lighter driver), but also a more rigid gasket better able to handle the movement of the large dynamic driver for less distortion.

The diaphragm of the FT3 is made of DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon), – which is both highly sturdy and lightweight compared to other diaphragm materials. This means that the FT3 driver is less prone to breakup and thus nonlinear distortion, while also having an extremely extended frequency response and improved soundstage.

PURE SOUND

350Ω high impedance

The FT3 was designed with great sound as the primary goal, and features 350Ω impedance to achieve that. Compared to lower impedance headphones, higher impedance headphones more effectively filter out noise to the listener resulting in a purer sound with higher signal-to-noise ratio performance

The voice coil is made of ultra-fine Japanese copper-clad aluminium only 0.035mm thick in diameter. This finer voice coil allows the driver to better and more quickly follow signals, has anti-interference capabilities, and allows for thunderous dynamics across a wide frequency response range.

HEAR THE ARTIST’S INTENT

Asymmetrical internal and external magnetic circuit system

The FT3 utilises powerful N52 neodymium magnets to maximise sound quality under its 350Ω impedance design. These magnets have been arranged in an optimised asymmetrical internal and external magnetic circuit system. When the voice coil starts to move during the reproduction of sound, the optimised magnetic circuit balances this movement of the voice coil and diaphragm, especially during large dynamic changes - which allows more effective use of magnetic energy and better control over the voice coil.

QUALITY CABLE

• Furukawa monocrystalline copper wire
• Standard with the FT3 is a 3m, 23AWG diameter cable consisting of high-purity Furukawa monocrystalline copper wire.
• Outer shell material: TPE
• Shielding layer: PCOCC-A (26/0.12X2)
• Insulating layer: PFA
• Conductor: PCOCC-A (3/20/0.8X2AWG23)
• Outermost diameter: 2.4mmx2 (parallel structure)

WIDELY COMPATIBLE

4 swappable audio plugs come standard

The FT3 cable features swappable plugs of the following 4 kinds:

• 3.5mm/4.4mm swappable plugs
• 3.5mm to 6.35mm adapter
• 4.4mm to XLR-4 balanced adapter

*Interchangeable audio plugs are officially licensed from the patent by FABRILOUS.

LIGHTER AND STRONGER

Aluminium alloy construction

FULL OF COMFORT

With a lightweight hollow mesh design

The open-back design features a hollowed-out mesh to not only further reduce the weight for greater listening comfort, but also to fully unleash the capabilities of its driver in a more open environment.

REMOVING A LAYER OF VEIL FROM YOUR MUSIC

Open-backed design

FREE TO ROTATE

3-axis swivelling design

The FT3 has undergone much fit testing in FiiO Labs, and the 3-axis swivelling design is one result of that testing. The 3-axis swivelling design was specifically made so that the FT3 could better fit a wide variety of head and face shapes for improved comfort and better seal to maximise sound quality.
